“Don't quit tomorrow. Sleep on it. But don't spend the rest of your life afraid to start over.”
That was the moment I realized something.
The money wasn't what impressed me.
It was the fact that, for the first time, someone with every reason to show off had spent the entire night trying to make me believe I could build something of my own.

“ We shall have our manhood. We shall have it or the earth will be leveled by our attempts to gain it.” ~ Eldridge Cleaver
I refuse to believe that anyone in their right mind would choose this life. Dear God, restore compassion in the hearts of humanity. May I never become so self-assured that I overlook the profound psycho-spiritual struggles of others.

The most disturbing photo from Kenya 🇰🇪, Retweet widely for the World tu see 👀
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
This photo shows a Kenyan riot policeman kicking Boniface Manono during a May 2016 anti-IEBC protest, not the 2023 finance bill protests. Misunderstandings arise from missing context, despite the ongoing Kenyan police brutality.

I wonder if the pushback regarding the commentary made about the President’s wife would be the same if it were any other mother/grandmother. Or if some humans deserve more dignity than others 💭🤔

Do not use your energy to worry. Use your energy to believe, to create, to learn, to think and to grow.

“Knowing how to be solitary is central to the art of loving. When we can be alone, we can be with others without using them as a means of escape.”

13 years after dropping out of high school, leaving my home country and starting at a community college, I graduated from Stanford with a PhD last weekend! It takes a village to raise a scientist and I am immensely grateful for the mentors and peers who helped me along the way.
